I just setup an account "guest" with password "guest" and a shell modified

Addendum: Later, the attacker returned and installed an IRC bouncer;
I couldn't resist, joined IRC and talked to him (from another host).

  Great. :-)
  Did the same and watched the same guy. Except that my shell did
  not allow him/her to install anything. Just uploading. Was quite
  a fun to observe him and other guys trying to get things running.
  It's amazing how much patience they show in trying to exploit a
  system even if things clearly won't work. Well, one of the guy
  uploaded sparc binaries on my linux node and tried to execute it.

  I'm still in the process to gather all data for documentation.
